So, I had my third interview today. It also included a written exam and physical agility test. All of it went well, I think. I have had a curious sense of peace and satisfaction all day today, as well as a hint of soreness in my glutes from climbing ladders...that included the 80 foot aerial. What a rush THAT was! I wanted to stop at the top and look around for a bit, but it was COLD up there! If I had wiggled a bit, the ladder belt would have slipped down around my knees; guess they're made for more robust firefighters!

Anyway, once again, it is hurry up and wait. But I'm certain I won't be waiting long for a decision this time. The fire board meets this coming Thursday, so I'll be on pins and needles until then...my parents have been riding around in cars that say, "Firefighter's Mom" and "Firefighter's Dad" for six months now. I'm hoping not to make liars out of them!
